Head down to somewhere like Demond Tweeks and sit in a few! Best way too see what suits you. Then pick them up off the interweb 40% cheaper. I ended up with Sparco Evo 1 plus. Love'em.
I think I'll just remove it then, thanks all.
@JamesBryan Both. Nevermind though, I'll do it myself. Think I'll paint the rocker cover silver at the same time.
Hi,
After changing my alternator, I realised how horrid my engine bay is. I've polished up an inlet manifold, got my fuel-rail guard powder coated and painted my engine cover. However, this horrible looking thing keeps bothering me. Could someone tell me what it is and if it's okay to remove it...
@Timmsy
This light remains on is a myth. Was fidling with mine yesterday and managed to get both serv/airbag light off. I just turned my battery off for ages, triple folded the resistors using pliers.
Small update:
Done about 600 miles on these now, more responsive in the 'twisties'(cliosport,2015) but still struggling in a straight line. Little feeling in the front tbh. Best word to describe the feeling is spongey when twitching the steering wheel slightly in a straight line.
Anybody know the correct pressure for ozf1's checked round and they have 39psi! Seems way too much! Thinking 30-32 max? I'll definitely work with them for a few hundred miles though.
I'll wear them in a bit, see how they do? Weather was stunning yesterday as well, so I was confused. Think i'll change them if required, they were fairly cheap as tyres go. I got them thinking they were top of the range budgets myself after reading on here how much they are rated. I'll check...
Just thought i'd share my experience with everyone with my toyo's.
Just swapped my standard 182 alloys with decent khumo's on. Drive was perfect, I could chuck it wherever I liked. I swapped to OZ f1 15" with brand new toyo t1r's all round after hearing good things, went for a drive with some...
Tried Ford's graphite grey, looks a bit too light... I've also looked for this scanner thing, but seems like a myth lol Body repair shops do seem to have them just nowhere near Worcestershire.
Does anybody know the best way to match the center caps? Or is it just a case of choosing a colour that is as close as possible via Halfords rattle can job?
Birmingham, brilliant place. Quick and easy, took just under a week. One thing with the color I chose they didn't have a color code for it, so I've gotta match that at some point!
I've refurbed wheels in the past but want to get a solid finish rather than a rattle can job tbh. But I might have a sand and see just how bad they are later.
I'd rather pay someone to do it tbh, I'll have a look at some threads. They do look tragic at the minute, so something's in order. It's a shame because I do like the look of the standard colour but if I go down the powdercoaters I'll no doubt have them in black or dark grey.
Bought some alloys the other day of eBay, picture was poor but it stated one alloy was kerbed badly. I got them with the intention of refurbing them. Turned up today and it's bad, was planning to go to citypowdercoaters in Birmingham but for £80 I can't imagine a lot of prep work going into...

Is this the right one? @car.crash as the FEBI one has sold out now :pensive:
Sorry to be posting something that has probably been answered 1000's of times, but I couldn't find a definitive answer.
Basically do the Kangoo engine mount fit to the 182 no problems? Seems stupid spending £60 when they retail at £30.
Here's the links of what i was going to get to replace my...
I have a polished inlet which I've done myself so not the best job in the world but I was happy enough to fit it to my car until I realised it was for a 172 I assume as it doesn't fit my non cup 182 (gutted) took me about a month to do. I can get more photos upon request just wanted to know what...
I got the exact same, I know what i've gotta do I think but my .cal files just says attachment.cal. Doesn't look right to me? its usualy like 98ronblahblah.cal
